September 22, 2022 – Sport Law and NOVA Global have been collaborating since 2017 to bring greater clarity and purpose to hundreds of sport leaders, coaches and athletes through the NOVA Profile, a psychometric tool that supports increased self-awareness, greater team synergy, and enhanced communications.  Sport Law has been integrating the NOVA Profile into many of its offerings since 2017 including the annual Sport Leaders Retreat, personalized coaching, and cultural transformation projects. 

“To amplify our commitment to offer hope-filled and insightful support to the sport sector during National Coaches week, we are excited to announce that our collaborators from NOVA Global have agreed to significantly discount the cost of the NOVA for athletes. NOVA Global and Sport Law believe in the positive power of sport to transform communities and it’s essential for athletes, coaches and administrators to increase self-awareness and have shared language to cultivate a holistic and values-driven experience. We believe this will be a game changer for sport,” shared Dina Bell-Laroche, Partner at Sport Law. 

“We’ve been so impressed with how Sport Law has integrated the NOVA Profile into their projects and services. The world needs more humanistic approaches and practices and we are delighted to be offering a discounted rate to athletes who we believe are an important contributor to a vibrant and healthy society. It is our hope that the NOVA is used across all levels of sport so that athletes can learn as much about their inner game as they do about the sport they love,” shared Jasmine Bélanger, CEO of NOVA Global. 

Based on positive comments from sport leaders over the years who have integrated the tool within their cultures, Sport Law has made an expressed commitment to increase its capacity to offer the NOVA Profile to as many sport leaders, coaches, and athletes as possible. “As an Integral CoachTM with Sport Law, I have seen the positive impact the NOVA Profile can have on individuals and teams when we create common language. There is greater empathy, more vulnerability, and a shared commitment that is forged that increases trust and decreases unhealthy conflict,” shared Lauren Brett, Integral Coach and former national team athlete and coach in the sport of rhythmic gymnastics. 

The NOVA Profile can be used in several creative ways including:

• Cultural renewal projects
• Management of interpersonal tensions and conflict
• Leadership and personal growth
• Team synergies for leaders, coaches, and athletes
• Strengthened communications across NSO and PTSO
• Board and staff enhanced relations
• Holistic hiring and termination practices
• And so much more
